Ok, both of those ads are hilarious, though only the first has anything to do with mountaineering. Hamsterdam is pretty trippy, though . . .

Thanks ... but I can't take credit for something I caught on the tube while munching down on a tub of popcorn. Word..

Less attitude, more altitude. I love it!

Topical too now that there is going to be 3g coverage on Everest.

That's going to come in handy for my future mountaineering excursions!

I'm telling you its just the start

Scene 2:

climber 1: he has pulmonary and cerebral edema and we are out of diamox and dexamethasone!!!!

climber 2: don't worry, I'll just call in a refill

climber 3: we don't have time, he won't make it through the night!!!!

climber 2: don't worry, the refill will be ready in 1 hour. We'll send the guy with the funny accent down to get it and by the time he gets there the refill will be ready....

telling you, its just the start of a series

If we're on the subject of commercials....
